Building communities and innovation networks with robotics at schools – Steam Conference 2018

Dr. Fernando Vilariño and Alexandra Canet presented a workshop at last week’s Steam Conference in Cosmocaixa, Barcelona. They presented theLibrary Living Lab to High School science and technology teachers and dedicated a session on how to build a community with local actors and thus actively work on societal challenges within their towns or neighbourhoods, all of this with the use of robotics. The public was highly commited with their local communities and eager to explore different ways to effectively engage with stakeholders and thus trigger change at a local scale.
